Whilst in England in February this year, I got very attached with a MacBook Air. It wasn’t mine but I wished and wished with all of my might for it to be so…
AND SOMEONE ACTUALLY SENT ME ONE!! A MB AIR!!! (CAPS LOCKS ATTACK!) How insane is that? I’m still waiting for a Darlick or a Darma dude or a cylon or Ashton or Jonah Takalua to appear…
PS. If anyone else would like to send me stuff, i still need an iPhone, more M&S Biscuits, and a dinosaur Pez dispenser to match my awesome dino PJs. Rarrrr.

I’m officially envious right now
And preparing for the big day tomorrow!
BTW my laptop has died. Can you tell them to send me one just like yours?
Hehehe
Congrats!

PUK YOU MISS.
Tyler Ingram said on May 14th, 2008 at 8:16 pm
Wow if anyone else out there wants to help me ‘Make The Switch’ by all means send me a Macbook Air too! I’d even settle for a MacBook.
You sure do look happy though
Jarel said on May 14th, 2008 at 8:18 pm
Very jealous….
Thanks for rubbing it in our faces, lol
Chris said on May 14th, 2008 at 8:44 pm
Did somebody anonymously send you a $2,000 device? Do you know this somebody? Is this particular Air hot?
fotoeins said on May 14th, 2008 at 9:08 pm
Mmmmm, MB Air pr0n …
Hahahahahahah …. that coy big blue-eyed look could probably knock down kingdoms …
Que lindo, su MBA … I’m right behind you by 11-14 days.
Can’t. fight. this. feeling.
… any more …
p.s. if someone sends you an iBettany, get that trademark down. STAT.
macanuck said on May 14th, 2008 at 9:38 pm
Got two words for you.
Stal.Ker.
Seriously. I can go on about my lust for a Gelaskin, but you think anyone will send me one? Even though it costs, like, $30? Heck no. People won’t even donate $2 to keep my highly informative if somewhat random blog afloat? Why? Because I don’t look good in a bikini. (And somewhere out there, there are pictures that prove that point….)
They say you can’t get something for nothing, and while I hope this is as good a deal as it sounds, I worry that one of these days Kevin Rose will show up on your doorstep looking for some sugar…
Wait, bad example. Um. Jason C shows up on your doorstep with keys to his Tesla Roadster…?
Scott Bourne and his 1Ds Mk III?
Woz and a sheet of $100 bills?
(You know that somebody, somewhere is pretending he’s that MBA, clutched possessively to your bosom…)
p. said on May 14th, 2008 at 9:48 pm
Does that mean you don’t need your regular MacBook anymore?
just me said on May 14th, 2008 at 10:32 pm
Congrats on your MBA! But one thing though, are you really like that in person? You don’t act normal. You aint seem normal at all.
PS. I think people will still visit your great site (and i mean it) even if you dont flaunt your assets.
Rob Haswell said on May 14th, 2008 at 10:39 pm
Awesome
Remember - caps-lock is cruise control for cool!
By the way, if I were you I’d format that thing before I even connected it to the network.
Thommy said on May 14th, 2008 at 11:02 pm
ok, off-topic, but i have a question. I’m from germany so i have problems understanding some things in english.
your headline says “i has MB Air.”. shouldnt that be a “have” instead of a “has”? is that a kind of common speech?
Dennis Bjørn Petersen said on May 14th, 2008 at 11:03 pm
LOL that’s cool. Congrats!
If you don’t ask, you don’t get anything

Hi , yesterday i discovered your blog, and i would like to say it is the most amazing spot on the internet ( didn’t used internet word from 4 years ago )
Anyway to say something related to this post or you will kick my a__ out from here, congratulation on MacBook AIR
Rob Haswell said on May 14th, 2008 at 11:24 pm
@Thommy

August said on May 14th, 2008 at 11:46 pm
Congratulations! I’d better get one myself, it’s so cool!
Skiant said on May 14th, 2008 at 11:54 pm
The beginning of the video is soooo drama-tastic. <3
Glad you got your air-fantasy!

John Chow said on May 15th, 2008 at 12:55 am
Don’t hate me, but I have more notebooks than I know what to do with.
Have fun with the air. You deserve it.
Dan said on May 15th, 2008 at 1:22 am
Pardon my french here Lisa but…
YOU LUCKY SHIT!!!
How come crap like that never happens to me!?

Nate said on May 15th, 2008 at 2:48 am

Greg from Make Money Online said on May 15th, 2008 at 3:43 am
Great job at getting a MAC book air. I want one really bad also. I don’t earn enough to justify it at this time. Good luck getting your I-Phone.

Jonic said on May 15th, 2008 at 8:54 am
Whatevs Lisa, I bet it’s not even the model with the SSD…
@John Chow: I’ll happily take a notebook off you. Be sure to note that I said “take”

Now that you have the Air, I’ll happily take that old MacBook of yours off your hands.

strange, rss reader didn’t pick up the first video. Congrats on the new mac. I’m still on cloud 9 with my macbook pro.
Spike said on May 16th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
If those dino PJs are as awesome as you say, I’d be tempted to send you an iPhone for a photo that properly demonstrates teh awesomeness.
Congrats, but I can’t exactly say I’m jealous. I went to the Apple Store prepared to buy a MacBook Air the last time I was in Dallas, but the craving died after about 30 seconds with that keyboard. Guess I’ll stick with my trusty MBP for now, even though it’s a few generations old.
Rey said on May 17th, 2008 at 8:20 am

I was just saying yesterday that I needed a laptop and that I was going to see if I could network through a couple of sites to see if anyone wanted to send me one for free.

A man puts an ad in the paper saying “Wife Wanted”. He got back a thousand letters each saying the saying thing, “you can have mine!”.
congrats - I wish someone would send me anonymous crap in the mail.

It’s cool that you got one, but I don’t really see much advantage to the Air. It feels to cheap to me. I would constantly be worried about breaking it…but hey, since you got it for free, what the heck, right?

If I was cute and clever, I bet someone would send me a macbook air too.
Instead, I am 80 lbs over weight, live in my grandmothers basement (my mother said it was time for me to leave), my favorite past time is playing world of warcraft and eating cheezits, am still a virgin, though like to think that I am having a blossoming relationship with a girl on the internet that also has a video camera.
She does cost me $1.99 a minute, so I cant see her that much because I have not gotten my promotion yet at the local subway.
will you send me a mac book air, or atleast an I phone?
